John Lewis did some great things in his 20s. He was also a pretty bad member of congress.

yea I'm pretty sure that poster is being bitchy about people rightly saying 'he did a lot of great things but we really shouldn't canonize people just for dying, Lewis himself would likely welcome a frank debate about the successes and failings of any activist'. Because obvs that means 'let's go poo poo on John Lewis' grave, for Stalin'.

it was so hosed up when Nathanial J. Robinson got up after talking to John Lewis about who was being so mean to him but as he walked away he started shedding his fancy suit and giving up on his weird accent and John Lewis realizes all the things Nathanial was saying were based on bits of writing and text in his office and ran after him because Nathanial was secretly the racist cop from back then all along but he had already gotten away

Yeah what they learned is that if someone did something brave and bold in their early 20s, then sold out not long after (look up how he campaigned), that they get lifetime deference for whatever they say no matter what

Good news, we have 30 more years , minimum, of Obama being deified and obeyed no matter what he decides should happen, and he's more than happy to make the phone calls when needed

ummm Clyburn saved america by ending the division in the democratic party

really the fact that Dellums went to a paupers grave with no mention and Lewis got a minor imperial funeral where they dunked on Stokley Carmichaels corpse illustrates what the actual dynamic is perfectly

So how's that 36b in Medicare cuts going? Dems jsut assuming they can prevent that somehow before next year?

it'll somehow end up being converted to more money for private insurers
& gently caress you.

The vig for not making the straight-up cuts demanded by dems' pay-go rules will be new medicare enrollees having to sign up with medicare advantage, a privatized system that is neither medicare nor an advantage over traditional medicare.
